There was a lot of black ice on the roads this morning!  I suspected there would be when I went to get into the car this morning and discovered that it had rained over the course of the night and all of the doors to the car were frozen shut.  That’s a pretty good indication that the roads are going to be nasty!  I was not terribly surprised to see a lot of cars off the road on my way to work.  Some people just don’t understand how treacherous black ice can be.  It is hard to see it on the road, you think the road is in great condition so you are diving normal speed (which is usually OVER the speed limit around here) and the next thing you know your car is in the ditch, or halfway up an embankment!  I drove a little below speed limit, and some people were honking their horns at me, upset that I was driving so slow.  I felt just a little smug when I saw those same people off the road!  I’m ashamed to admit that, but it’s the truth!
